Your ultimate Winter Fashion guidebook!

Plunging temperatures and strapping winds often make you realise- you’re about this close to slithering into winters, and it’s time to revamp your wardrobe with some warm clothes.

It’s that time of the year again when your closet becomes a puddle of confusion and frustration, especially when you try to squeeze in two or more season’s worth of garments in a cramped area. It’s thus important to reorganise your wardrobe post fall, as your winter clothes might have very little in common with your spring, fall or summer ones. Because dressing for warmth necessitates a distinct style, restructuring racks maybe required to accommodate bulkier trousers and sweaters.

One thing is transforming your wardrobe according to the seasonal change, and another is styling those outfits for that particular season. In this blog, let’s dig into both – reforming a sustainable winter wardrobe and styling winter office wear strategically.

1 Segregation

Starting with wardrobe alterations, whether you stockpile your summer clothes separately or consider relocating them to the back of your cupboard, one thing is for sure- what is out of sight, is out of mind. It is therefore necessary to keep your summer outfits away for you to have all your warmer pieces of clothing in front of you for better and faster styling. Using such a rotational system twice a year therefore helps you keep aside classic and versatile or trans-seasonal pieces you want to wear for the entirety of the year, and the ones you want to keep separate season-wise. Following this system can be very helpful and will aid you to concentrate on your winter wardrobe.

2 Retention

Once you’re done segregating summery dresses away, organizing winter wear inside your closet comes next- it’s the easiest to start with retaining the selected winter wear you’ll use and letting go of the items that don’t fit you anymore and are uncomfortable. Once you discard the old pieces, it will be easier to bring in the new ones.

3  Organization

Moving to organising your gorgeous layered cold-weather outfits, start with organising a pile of sectional clothes on your bed- each separate for sweaters, jackets, shirts etc, and go onto systematically putting them inside the wardrobe

4 Fixtures and shelving

It’s ideal to choose wooden hangers for blazers, heavy capes and cardigans. You can also consider getting shelf dividers to keep those sweaters in place, and new receptacles to bear mittens.

5 Storing accessories

A smart storage solution for smaller accessories like hats, gloves, scarves and mufflers can be a closet-door organiser with lots of pockets. It makes it easier for you to then mix-and-match accessories together, while avoiding them to not get lost between heavier pieces of clothing.

Coming to styling winter office-wear, what it simply means is to pack away all the beautiful summery dresses, strappy tops and heels, and escorting out the warm, snuggly winter-ready clothes, which sounds quite tedious and monotonous. Regrettably, your boss won’t accept this as a sound excuse for you to not go to work. Hence, when choosing what to wear on a cold freezy morning to the office, the last thing on your mind probably can be to look stylish, as preventing frostbite is sort of important.

But what most people tend to overlook is, winter wear can be fashionable too! Here are a few quick styling tips that’ll help you look your corporate best for the next couple of chilly months

Yes, preparing for the winter season clearly requires some work! A common perception of winter wear clothing is that one can’t look as stylish, which is false. It just means that we have to ensure that your functional clothing pieces serve more than just one purpose- elevating your overall look while also protecting you from the cold. With the right kind of warm fabrics, experimentation with layering and fall colours is the way to go.
